Rise/Fall Rate
Your trend screen provides visual cues letting you know your sensor glucose readings are
falling or rising rapidly.
Constantly looking at your screen may not be practical. You can customize your Rise/Fall
Rate Alert with vibrations or beeps to let you know when your glucose is rising or falling
(2 mg/dL/min, or 30 mg/dL in 15 minutes) or rapidly rising or falling (3 or more mg/dL/min, or
45 mg/dL or more in 15 minutes).
The default setting for the Rise/Fall Rate Alert is Off.
It is important that you discuss your Alert settings with your healthcare professional.
Signal Loss
Signal Loss Alert tells you when your transmitter and receiver aren't communicating. Set the
Signal Loss Alert to get alerted if your sensor glucose readings have stopped due to a signal
loss anywhere from 20 to 200 minutes.
The default setting for the Signal Loss Alert is On.
Remember, if Silent and/or Do Not Disturb are On, you won't hear your Signal Loss Alert.
Steps to Customize Receiver Alarm/Alerts
Using the same example from changing your app Alerts, let's change the receiver's High Alert
notification level from 200 mg/dL to 190 mg/dL, repeating every 60 minutes.
Follow the same steps for turning on the Rise/Fall Rate Alerts, and adjusting your Low Alert.
